Patterns of Lowest-Low Fertility in Europe
In this paper we conduct descriptive aggregate analyses to revisit the relation between low and lowest-low period fertility on the one, and cohort fertility and key fertilityrelated behaviors—such as leaving the parental home, marriage and female labor force participation—on the other side.
